Do you ever just feel like giving up after all the work you've put into your homestead?

Hi everyone! This is my first time ever having to bottle feed a buckling. Mother didnt want him, she was a first timer and didnt even develope an udder. She has absolutely no milk. I didnt even know she was pregnant.

Hello, I've noticed over the past couple weeks my turkeys developed these yellow and black bumps on the face, neck and head. Anyone know what it could be? They all eat and drink well. No one looks like they are actually sick so far.
I noticed these little bumps on my turkey. Hes the only one with them. Could it be from fighting with the others? He looks healthy. Eats wells and runs around pretty good. Doesnt look sick or anything. This year is my first year with turkeys so I'm new to alot of things about them.
